"Dear Lord, please give me one more real estate boom, and I promise that I will not blow it this time. Amen." Many of you have said this without realizing it's the official Realtor's Prayer. But instead of waiting around for another boom in the marketplace, Matt and Garrett encourage us to recognize the opportunities that are right in front of us every day to optimize success. In today's episode, they explain that there is always a boom if you know how to look for it. People will always fall in love, grow their families, switch careers, and go through other life changes that warrant the need to sell their homes. The Ninja Mindset helps you take advantage of these opportunities, rather than hoping for the marketplace to heat up again.
Matt and Garrett share how to create your own real estate boom by connecting with people over the phone, sending postcards, and conducting real estate reviews. Matt points out that even if your prayers are answered with a boom, you still need to take action to see results. Our hosts discuss the importance of commitment and consistency, speaking to clients and other agents frequently so that you're always top of mind, and give examples of how you can set yourself apart. Your boom is here. You just need to get out there and make it happen, and Matt and Garrett are here to show you how.
